Kerala schools begin virtual classes for the students

Kerala schools begin virtual classes for the students



Virtual classes for the students have begun by the Kerala government. The classes are being conducted through the Kerala Infrastructure and Technology for Education (KITE)-Victers channel under the name ‘First Bell’. Students can access the time-table from the official website – https://victers.kite.kerala.gov.in/. An official in a statement said “For the first week at least 1.2 lakh laptops, over 7,000 projectors and nearly 4,545 televisions have been readied for the students”. “We have entrusted the class teachers and school headmasters or principals to make sure that students have access to a television or a smartphone or a computer, and internet for the classes. If not, they should find an alternative for the students to attend the online classes either in real time or later,” Director of Public Instruction (DPI) K Jeevan Babu has said. Akshaya centers are being used as alternatives for the students to attend the classes. Other suggestions are to use television or internet facilities of neighbours, friends living nearby and libraries. The classes can be downloaded from the internet. This way, students who have missed the class can watch them later.
